Saturday's PhotoHunt Theme #184 "Tied"


This week's PhotoHunt theme is "Tied". This is a rag-rug woven by a good friend of mine, Boyan Carlsson, who lived in Lunger, outside of Arboga, Sweden.

We have many of her handwoven rag-rugs in our home.
They are all finished with knots that are tied.

I really admire that kind of creativity - beautiful work (and perfect for the theme!)

Have a great weekend!

Beautiful work on the rug especially the tied fringe. I think the fringe adds a lot to these rugs and both of your pictures show them beautifully.

I tried leaving the knots off a few woven projects. Not a good idea.

Beautiful rugs, just the sort of thing I'd love to have.

I'll bet it takes a long time to make something like that! We could not think of anything for the "tied" theme this week.
